WHAT'S NEW: THE SPRING 2013 FISHING SEASON HAS BEEN THE BEST WE'VE HAD IN RECENT MEMORY! Our local
rivers have been on fire with great hatches and heavily feeding fish that are waking up for the warm season! Now is
a great time to get out and enjoy some awesome fishing before the summer crowds show up. We have been fortunate
enough to get a lot of snow in the high elevations in Mid-April so our snowpack in the Roaring Fork Watershed has
reached 99% of average--which is great news coming off last years drought. This ensures healthy flows all season
and is welcome news for fish and fishermen throughout Colorado. APRIL 2013 IS THE 7TH ANNIVERSARY OF CRYSTAL FLY SHOP--Time flies when you're having
fun! Even more new gear for 2013--WE HAVE DRAMATICALLY EXPANDED
OUR SELECTION OF FLY TYING TOOLS AND MATERIALS. Many people are telling us we have the best selection in the
valley. For 2013 we have added the new brands of Dr. Slick tools, Badlands hunting packs, and Rainy's flies--including
the popular Kelly Galloup patterns like the Sex Dungeon. We also have new 2013 products IN STOCK from
manufacturers that we have carried for a long time: Korker's new KGB Killer Guide Boots; Redington's new Subzero cold
weather wader and their new Sonic Pro Ultra Packable Wader; Galvan's brand new Brookie reels for ultralite small stream rods;
Chota's new versions of the STL plus, Citico Creek, and Abrams Creek boot, along with their new Lost Creek and Rocky
Creek felt alternative boots, Chota Hippie and Caney Fork hip-high and knee-high wading socks; Winston's new B3SX rods and
GVX Select rods; Hardy's new Perfect Wide Spool reels; Umpqua's new fishing packs, Fishpond's entire new Westwester waterproof
pack & bag series--and more.

We have built up our selection of fly tying materials and
hooks as well now that we have the space for it in our big new shop. Our fly inventory has grown to over 1300 innovative patterns
from some of the most respected companies in the business, and this year we have expanded our selection of saltwater flies.
We also have the streamside accessories you need--all at great prices. CFS is locally owned and operated, serving both locals
and visitors to our great Roaring Fork Valley. We cater to experienced and novice fly fishermen. We are glad to share our local knowledge and are committed to giving personal
attention to our clients and customers. Our Carbondale, Colorado Fly Shop strives to offer quality items at reasonable prices, and we're thankful
to have many repeat clients who appreciate value, high performance, and personal service. Please stop by, call or e-mail
anytime if you have any questions regarding the latest fishing conditions, gear, what flies are hot, or just to say hello. Interested
in a trip to our area? Our valley has a well-known reputation for the abundance of quality public waters, with two officially
designated gold medal streams flowing through the heart of it. You can find just about any style of trout fishing within a
few minutes of Carbondale--from the big-shouldered, mystical Colorado; to riffle-filled freestones like the Roaring Fork and
Crystal, the insect and trout rich tailwater of the Frying Pan, to countless small high country streams and lakes filled with
brookies and cutthroat. Check out our report page for the latest conditions, check out our guide trip page for details on booking a guided float or wade trip, check out our lodging page for a list of area hotels, lodges, bed and breakfasts, and campgrounds, or give a call anytime we can be of help.
